ENCROACHMENTS ACT 1944 - SECT 6

6—Charge on land

        (1)         The order for payment of compensation may be registered in the Lands Titles Office or the General Registry Office in such manner as the Registrar-General determines, and shall, except so far as the court otherwise directs, upon registration operate as a charge upon the land of the encroaching owner and shall have the same priority as if it were a mortgage registered at the time when the order is registered.

        (2)         In this section the land of the encroaching owner means the parcel of land contiguous to the boundary beyond which the encroachment extends, or such part thereof as the court specifies in the order.
